This is my first post to Garage, please bear with mistakes. I will write a series of posts which will also be posted on my blog.

My first blog post after two back to back awesome conferences Black Hat Europe and Troopers. At Black Hat Europe I conducted a workshop called Teensy Programming for Everyone. The workshop was well recieved by most of the participants. But I found that many of them found it difficult to setup Arduino for usage with Teensy and other basic stuff. So keeping in mind my upcoming trainings at Shakacon and GrrCON I am starting this series of blog posts which during initial posts will detail the basics of Teensyduino installation, structure of sketches and usage of Teensy. In later posts, I will cover Kautilya and its usage. So let's get started.

Teensy is a programmable USB HID from nice guys at pjrc.com. I use Teensy++ (which is an improved version of Teensy) in Penetration Tests for its ability to be used as a programmable keyboard. To start with, this is how you can install Arduino with Teensyduino:

5. Run the the downloaded Serial Installer. You will get a warning as the driver is not signed by Microsoft. Accept it and continue with the installation.

6. Run the Teensyduino, it will check for installed serial driver.Provide the path for the folder where Arduino has been extracted, the "Next" button will be activated only if a Arduino is found at the provided location.

You can choose more libraries to install on the next screen. You can choose to install none, Teensy does not require them.
